The Selfie Stick Update!

Hello birders, this morning we have another update for you that adds a much requested item! 1.0.61 New Item: Selfie Stick!
- There's a new item that can be found at the Bluff's shop.
- This way you can take photos of your cool outfits, snap a picture of a bird on your head, and take selfies with friends!
Linux Native Build
- We have an official Native Linux build!
- Hopefully this means a better, more stable experience for Steam Deck(*) and Linux Desktop players!
(*) Steam Deck seems to only see the Proton (Windows) build still, we might need Valve to re-evaluate the game to get the Linux build showing up on Deck. We'll be asking them to re-evaulate soon because we're hoping to get Deck Verified! Steam Deck / Big Picture Mode Improvements
- When entering a lobby code, the game will open the Steam Keyboard automatically
- You can now use Text Chat in Steam Deck by pressing D-Pad Left (this can be rebound), this will open the Steam Keyboard to type your message.
- The Third Person Mode keybind now has a default binding of Top Face Button (Y on XBox, Triangle on PlayStation, X on Switch)
- Text Chat now has a default binding to D-Pad Right
- The Push To Talk button now has a default binding of D-Pad Left
Bug Fixes
- Cleaned up the third person camera system, lots of third person bugs (poop not showing up on yourself, weird stuff with crouching animations, etc.) have all been fixed!
- Fixed bug that prevented you from scrolling text chat while holding a whistle
Misc Changes
- Black Chinned Hummingbird now perches in trees, so you shouldn't need to rely on seeds to get perched shots (our bad!)
- Copy to Clipboard buttons in the Develop-o-tron UI and in Camera Roll UI are now hidden on Linux, these buttons don't work on Linux anyway (sorry Linux users! I'll try to work something out)
- Previously birds perching on your head would always land on the same spot. Now the spot they choose is based on your hat cosmetic!
- Lobby codes are now forced to uppercase, so if you typed e1gb531q it will be interpreted as E1GB531Q
- Fixed some rock collision and holes in the map.
